mnt - John:5:16-30

mnt@John:5:16 @ and because of this the Jews began to persecute Jesus, because he had done it on the Sabbath.

mnt@John:5:17 @ But he answered them, "My Father has continued working until now, and I am working too."

mnt@John:5:18 @ For this reason the Jews continued to seek the more eagerly to put him to death, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was actually speaking of God as his own Father, thus making himself of Gods equal.

mnt@John:5:19 @ So Jesus answered them in these words. "In solemn truth I tell that the Son cannot do anything of himself, except what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does also.

mnt@John:5:20 @ "For the Father loves the Son, and shows him every thing that he himself is doing. And greater deeds than these will he show him, that you may wonder.

mnt@John:5:21 @ "For just as the Father raises the dead and makes them alive, even so the Son makes whom he will alive.

mnt@John:5:22 @ "The Father indeed does not judge any one, but has given all judgment to the Son,

mnt@John:5:25 @ "Solemnly I tell you that the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear shall live.

mnt@John:5:26 @ "For as the Father has life in himself, so also has he granted to the Son to have life in himself.

mnt@John:5:27 @ "And he has given him authority to pronounce judgment, because he is Son of man.

mnt@John:5:28 @ "Do not wonder at this, because an hour is coming in which all who are in their graves shall hear his voice and shall come forth again;

mnt@John:5:29 @ "those who have done good into a resurrection of life, and those who have practised evil to a resurrection of condemnation.

mnt@John:5:30 @ "I can of my own self do nothing. As I listen, I judge, and my own judgment is just, because I am not seeking my own will, but the will of Him who sent me.
